Dachshund Christmas

I bet I'm not the only one who goes into the craftroom to make a certain card and ends up making something completely different.   
I came in my craftroom to make a birthday card this morning, whilst going into a die box came across this little Daschund die which I bought a long time ago and had never used it so decided to do something with it...and here is a Christmas card... I'm afraid I can't tell you what brand the die is as it was just on a magnet sheet...  anyway one less Christmas card to make!

Its a beautiful day down here in Somerset, the sun is out and its quite pleasant outside..

Dainty Flowers & Napkins cards

Last Saturday it was a Coffee and card morning with the lovely Jill Lackford..we made this pretty screen card using SU dainty flowers DSP and some die die cuts, a punch was used on the bottom of the panels which gave a lovely effect. 

Another Napkin card which I decoupaged the little birds and made it into a New Home Card...
Another Napkin card...loved the image and it again I could decoupage some of it...Using mod Podge on these cards give you a lovely texture..

Just as a matter of interest, I have found since the update of my Norton security there are 4 blogs that I visit regularly that I am now unable to access from my PC... I get a security alert saying 'Dangerous website'..thankfully 3 of them I can access from my iPad...has anyone else had problems I would be interested to know..

Love Cats...

A quick Valentine card using one of the stamps from the SU Love Cats stamp set...papers are from an old paper pack... I've used some diamond glace on the little heart....

It's so nice to have the weather a little warmer and also to see the sunshine..

Thanks for stopping by, you comments are greatly appreciated...

Paper Napkin cards

My lovely crafty friend Sharon presented me with a small carrier bag full of paper Napkins to play with....these are two that I have done and thought they would be good for men....  I just stuck the single layer of napkin onto some sticky back paper (which I bought very cheaply from that well known auction site) then painted a layer of Mod Podge over the top ...added the little die cut chair..
This napkin made a lovely card... I have decoupaged the glass in front and popped in onto pads which doesn't really show up that well in the photograph...

We still have snow on the lawns and on the hillside, out little Cul-de-Sac is like a skating rink..hopefully todays sunshine will melt it all away today.

Have a great weekend whatever you decided to do....

Tea Boutique ....



I was lucky enough to win two prizes from the lovely Jenny Moors advent Christmas draw... one of the prizes was a lovely set of cards and envelopes called Tea Boutique...I've used two of the cards today, I found some flowers in my scrap box....one punched and one stamped... The matching envelopes for these cards are so pretty .... my other win was some gems which I assume is still in the postal system!  We've already received Christmas cards in the New Year! 

Thank you for taking the time to stop by..

Anniversary...



Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and New year...its all flown by so quickly..

My Mojo seems to be still on holiday but I did manage to put together this Anniversary card from dies I had in my 'bit box'...

No New Years resolutions really only that I need to use my crafting stash to make cards and not to buy any more stuff...  I am finding things that I didn't even realize I had which says to me I have far too much stash....

It's a beautiful day down here in Somerset and I saw lots of daffodils out in bloom when driving this morning....that always says to me Spring is on its way, all we have to do is do get through January and February first!

Thanks for stopping by

Anne

My first card for 2023 is this quick Anniversary card...
